London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / Herbert born in Fulham Workhouse
« on: Tuesday 15 September 09 20:19 BST (UK) »
This is a desperate plea for help.
A friend asked me to help him with his family history and he knows nothing except who his parents were!
I have his father's birth & second marriage certificates and that is the total of my information.
His father Charles Abbott Herbert was born in Fulham Union Workhouse on 25th Sept 1890 to Emily Harriet Herbert. No father given. I have sent for Emily's birth cert.
He married his second wife Sarah Oliver at Fulham Register Office on 30th April 1921. He was 30 years old and a Caterers Porter. Address 298, Lillie Rd, Fulham. He gives his father as Charles Abbott Herbert a Master Builder (deceased). Whether that is fact or fiction I don't know.
I have looked on Ancestry & findmy past and cannot find him on the 1891 or 1901 censuses. I have also looked on the GRO for a possible first marriage and the most likely match is to Louisa F Clarke 1918 Dec qtr. Fulham 1a 734.
Her death is not recorded on FreeBMD.
